Caviar & Bananas, sure, but maybe “canard and kale” is the most fitting nickname for this gourmet grocery/café/prepared-food stop. Their duck confit panini with fig preserves and the giant bowl of fresh kale salad with almonds, Gouda, and cranberry are cult favorites around town. Head to the George Street hangout that buzzes daily with locals and college students or the new Market Hall spot to grab a nosh, sip coffee, and check out the shelves of olive oils, chocolates, and just-baked cookies and pies. 51 George St. & 188 Meeting St. in The Market Great Hall, (843) 577-7757, www.caviarandbananas.com
